It is the day after professional development and I am both exhilirated and exhausted. I conducted three seminars on critical thinking and enjoyed working with my colleagues. One of the seminars (the one I repeated) was me delivering information, but the other involved some group work and the groups seemed to respond positively to the activities.
Today we are gathering feedback via the web and so far the results have been positive.
I enjoyed the sessions. Even though I have been through the critical thinking training, I have drifted away somewhat due to the (perceived) need to produce so many formal grades here at CDS. I would like to begin retooling more of my lessons using ct strategies, but am concerned about time constraints. I would like your help in creating one sustained ct lesson during 4th quarter. The juniors are the obvious target group.
I’m glad you enjoyed the session and I will definitely help you with planning a lesson for your juniors. If you can, give me a heads up on a topic and then we can determine a time to meet.
